Jin Lin didn't expect his actions to bring Si Muran so much trouble. He looked a little apologetic. After pondering for a moment, his eyes suddenly lit up as he looked at Si Muran and said with a smile,""I see that you are not happy in the Minister's residence. Why don't I go to the Minister's residence tomorrow to propose marriage and marry you home to dote on you every day?”
As a transmigrator, Si Muran was naturally disdainful of Jin Lin's suggestion. She waved her hand and glared at him." Stop it. I don't want to marry a foodie who I've only known for a day and I don't even like her!"”
"Foodie?" Upon hearing this, Jin Lin could not help but chuckle at the thought of him following the food to Si Muran's courtyard this afternoon." That's a fitting phrase." Today is the Lantern Festival. Why don't I take you to the Lantern Festival to play? I'll take it as an apology for bringing you trouble today!”
At this moment, Si Muran had nowhere to go. Instead of wandering alone on the streets, she might as well follow this man to the lantern festival to relax. She could also take the opportunity to extort him!
So he nodded and said,"Alright, let's go to the lantern show!"”
The ancient people did not have many entertainment facilities, so whenever there was a festival, they would prepare it very grandly.
At the lantern festival, Si Muran was very happy to see the pedestrians on the streets, as well as all kinds of snacks, acrobatic stalls, and lantern stalls. Even Le Lin became exceptionally pleasing to the eye.
Si Muran was accidentally pushed far away by the crowd. Before she could react, someone grabbed her hand tightly.
"There are many people here. I can only protect you if you leave with me.”Jinlin held her hand with a gentle smile.
Waves of warmth came from her palm. Under the faint warm light, Le Lin's face was incomparably handsome. For a moment, Si Muran was at a loss. He could only raise his eyebrows." Men and women shouldn't touch each other. If you casually hold a stranger's hand, she might report it to the authorities."”
"I don't treat any woman like this.”Jin Lin smiled and looked at the boat under the bridge and the river lanterns floating on the lake."There are too many people here. Why don't I take you on a boat to the lake and light the river lanterns?”
Hundreds of river lanterns decorated the lake water beautifully. Si Muran was also interested in it and followed Jin Lin towards the lake.
However, Si Muran regretted it when she got on the boat.
The surrounding boats were filled with young men and women. They were clearly lovers in love.
However, the person sitting opposite her was Jin Lin. Si Muran felt extremely awkward. She lowered her head and fiddled with the river lantern that she had just bought. She lit the candles in the river lantern one by one and threw them into the river.
Jinlin looked at Si Muran, who was sitting opposite him. He was silent for a while before he said seriously,""Miss Situ, I'm not joking when I said that I want to marry you today. If you..." Before he could finish his sentence, three or four darts that were glinting coldly flew towards Si Muran.
In a moment of desperation, Jin Lin reached out and pulled Si Muran into his arms. He used his lightness skill to dodge the hidden weapon.
" Ah…" Si Muran exclaimed, her heart filled with fear.
If Jinlin had not pulled her away in time, she would have been seriously injured even if she did not die. Who was it? Would he be so ruthless to take her life?
"Who are you?" Jin Lin asked in a deep voice as he looked at the five men in black who were flying in front of him.
The leader of the men in black sneered." It doesn't matter who we are. The most important thing is to keep that girl here. Otherwise, the knives in our hands won't have eyes!"”
After some thought, Jin Lin turned to look at Si Muran in his arms and said in a deep voice,""You're just an ordinary young lady from the Minister's Residence. Could it be…apart from the one you gave me, have you drawn any other blueprints recently?”
Si Muran couldn't figure out what her identity had to do with the blueprint. She said in a daze,""I even drew it for the Fourth Prince."
Jin Lin frowned slightly. His gaze became dark and unclear where the moonlight could not find it.
After a while, she looked at Si Muran." These people might be here for that blueprint. If you tell them how you got the blueprint, they won't make things difficult for you."”
The blueprints were all from the encyclopedia in Si Muran's mind. If she told the truth, wouldn't she be taken away and dissected like a lab rat?
Thinking about it, Si Muran had an idea and said,""I accidentally saw those blueprints in a book when I was young. I can only draw one or two based on my impression. It's useless even if you capture me now!”
Upon hearing this, Jin Lin's expression changed drastically. After a long while, he gradually calmed down and gave a look to the few men in black opposite him.
The few of them understood and drew their swords at the same time, attacking Si Muran.
However, before they could get close, they saw a cold light flash in the distance. The few men in black who had jumped up did not even have the chance to struggle before they fell to the ground.
Si Muran covered her mouth and cried out in shock. She looked towards the forest and saw Pei Chenshuo, dressed in black, with his hair tied up in a jade crown. He looked extremely handsome under the moonlight. He was carrying a long sword and his eyes were slightly narrowed as he walked towards them.
Jinlin was slightly taken aback, but he quickly returned to his usual gentle and refined self. He chuckled and said,"Fourth Prince, I'm really grateful for your help! But how did Lord Four know we were here?”
Pei Chenshuo obviously did not care about Jin Lin. He frowned at Si Muran, who was held in Jin Lin's arms, and said in a deep voice,""Follow me back to the Imperial Residence."
Si Muran took a step back in fear. The other party had killed three people in an instant. Was he trying to silence them?
Si Muran's voice trembled slightly." No…No need. I'll get Jinlin to send me back to the Minister's residence later."”
Pei Chenshuo narrowed his eyes, his dark phoenix eyes suddenly revealing a hint of dominance. He stretched out his long arm, intending to pull Si Muran to his side.
Sensing Pei Chenshuo's intentions, Jin Lin stepped forward and blocked Pei Chenshuo's path. He said in a deep voice,""Fourth Prince, I don't care how you usually flirt, but if you have any ill intentions towards Miss Si, I won't give in so easily.”
Pei Chenshuo did not even look at her, but his lips curled into a cold smile.""Get lost!"
As he spoke, he stepped forward and used the hilt of his sword to repel Jin Lin, who had a dark expression on his face. Then, he picked up Si Muran and flew away.”
Si Muran, who was in Pei Chenshuo's arms, struggled. She frowned and looked at him nervously." Let go of me!”
Pei Chenshuo deliberately hugged Si Muran tighter and said in a deep voice,""You would rather believe that kid's words than me?”For some reason, he felt uncomfortable when he saw Si Muran being carried by Le Lin.
Si Muran was still in fear of Pei Chenshuo's murder, and her voice was filled with fear.""I just want to live a peaceful life. Why are you guys always pestering me and making me restless? I want to go home."
Staring at Si Muran's bitter eyes, Pei Chenshuo sighed…
Minister Si was stunned when he heard the servant report that Lord Four had brought Si Muran to visit him in the middle of the night. He couldn't figure out how that useless daughter who had been sent to the garment workshop had been sent back by his highness.
Seeing Pei Chenshuo in the main hall, Si Shang's usually stern face instantly broke into a bright smile.
"Your Highness, look at your sudden arrival. Our residence didn't prepare anything, it's really…"
"Minister, there's no need to be so polite. I'm only sending your daughter back today. I hope you can keep a close eye on her and don't let her cause trouble everywhere!”After saying that, Pei Chenshuo looked at Si Muran deeply and turned to leave the Si residence.
After sending Pei Chenshuo off with a smile, Minister Si looked at Si Muran again. His eyes were filled with anger as he shouted angrily,""When did you do it outside? You actually made the Fourth Prince so angry!"
Too many things had happened today. Si Muran looked at her father who was cursing at her and felt exhausted." Did you ever think of me as the daughter of the Si family? What a joke!"
Hearing that his daughter, who had always been submissive, actually dared to talk back to him, Minister Si was instantly furious. He shouted at the servant beside him," Lock this rebellious girl in the woodshed! Without my permission, no one is allowed to let her out!”
Just like that, Si Muran had just escaped from the tiger's den and entered the wolf's den when she was taken to the woodshed and locked up by a few guards. To think that he had vowed to let them carry the palanquin back, but he was still in such a sorry state.
Pei Chenshuo and Jin Lin were definitely her nemesis. She had been unlucky ever since she met them.
Leaning against the wall and looking at the firewood in the room, Si Muran tragically realized that ever since she transmigrated, being locked up seemed to have become a common occurrence.
They were both young misses of the Minister's Residence, yet they were treated so differently. What was the use of such an unbearable identity?
Si Muran wasn't someone who was content with her fate. She had to find a way to leave this place!
Under the cold moonlight, Si Muran looked through the crack in the door at the two guards who were still guarding the door. She frowned and fell into deep thought.
The next day, before dawn, Si Muran squatted carefully at the door and listened to the snoring outside.
Taking advantage of the fact that the two guards had not woken up, she gently stepped on the pile of firewood that had been set up by the window of the woodshed last night and climbed out of the window.
Having learned her lesson from taking a detour and almost losing her life, Si Muran decided to take the main road this time. Anyway, it was still early and the servants at home had not woken up yet, so she was not afraid of being bumped into.
However, just as she was a few steps away from the side door, a voice startled Si Muran.
"Hey! Lass! Didn't you say last time that you were the eldest miss of the Si residence? Why was he behaving so sneakily in his own home?”
A deep voice sounded from above Si Muran's head. Si Muran was stunned and looked up at the source of the voice. She saw a man in a black brocade robe sitting at the top of the garden pavilion and looking at her.
The sky was dark and the man's face was hidden in the thin mist. However, the oppressive aura around him still made Si Muran take two steps back.
"Who are you?" Si Muran looked at the man and said in a deep voice.
"Ms. Si, you're really forgetful. It's only been a few days and you've already forgotten about me? How sad!"
A low and bewitching voice rang out softly. The man chuckled and stood up, lightly tapping the roof with his toes. He leaped down from the gazebo and came in front of Si Muran. His dark eyes peered at Si Muran as he said softly,"Have you forgotten? We saw it a few days ago in the abandoned house of the Minister of Foreign Affairs.”
Looking at the man's handsome face with a hint of devilish charm and his deep and magnetic voice, Si Muran was stunned. She suddenly remembered that the man in front of her was the man in black who had almost killed her a few days ago.# Cancel all reviews: wdd201302 Time:111420185: 55PM #
